Are the Cleveland Browns really interested in Jadeveon Clowney?

New reports have come out that the Cleveland Browns are interested in top free agent Jadeveon Clowney.

Now, I am not going to sit here and say that I have an inside source or that I believe that any of these reports aren’t true. What I will say is that very little has changed in the free agency landscape to make me think that a new team has emerged for one of the top free agents in the class.

If this had as soon as the news broke that Clowney had lowered his asking price, then fine I would be more inclined to believe it. Right now, I would say that I am skeptical of the Cleveland Browns truly being interested in Jadeveon Clowney or vice versa.

However, the report from Jeremy Fowler came out on Saturday and since then there hasn’t really been much momentum in favor of the new team which raises some eyebrows to me.

From @SportsCenter earlier: Cleveland Browns have shown interest in Jadeveon Clowney, and some people around league believe Cleveland got closer with Clowney than other suitors, though nothing ultimately happened from recent talks. Seattle's offer hasn't been what Clowney wants.

So before I make guesses about this being an attempt by Clowney’s agent to pump up the price of his guy, let’s take a look at whether a deal makes sense and what the Browns might (or might not) have to offer compared the Seattle Seahawks and Tennessee Titans.
